Anyone else watched?
Bobrova/Soloviev were very lucky to be in first place with such a big margin. On the positive side, their GW was excellent. However, he had a big mistake in the twizzles. I also thought they looked frantic and unpolished compared to Ilinykh/Katsalapov and Riazanova/Tkachenko, who were both just on and had great performances.

I think the difference between R/T and I/K is just about right - they were both great and I think it comes down to taste on who you have first. R/T were more mature, but I/K were fiercer and had more attack.

I would have had it: I/K (tiny gap) R/T and (larger gap) B/S

Khoklova and Andreev were totally gifted. He's wooden as heck, and I thought Telegina/Molotov deserved to be ahead of them. T/M were my pleasant surprise of the competition - great bascis and a lovely program to Amelie. I thought they were hard done by the judging. I wish Khoklova had paired up with Volobuev - who is much better than his new partner and was right there in Svin/Zhuk's group!
